Earning Eagle Scout is a major accomplishment. Explaining what it means can make a resume even stronger.

Join us for Resumes: How to highlight your Eagle Scout experiences, knowledge, and skills. Don't assume everyone knows what it takes to become an Eagle Scout. This session will explore how to translate Scouting experiences into professional terms, highlighting the leadership, technical skills, and perseverance required to earn the rank.

Not everyone knows what it takes to become an Eagle Scout. This session will explore how to translate Scouting experiences into professional terms, highlighting the leadership, technical skills, and perseverance required to earn the rank.

Panelists Ross Arnold, Mike Buras, and Mark Frederick will discuss how Eagles can move beyond simply listing “Eagle Scout” and describe the experiences and accomplishments behind that achievement.

Join us and help spread the word. We invite NESA members and council NESA committee members to attend this webinar and share the invitation with young Eagle Scouts, troop leaders, and families in their communities.
